AhnLab Blockchain Company (ABC), AhnLab’s digital asset infrastructure unit, said on Sept. 22 it launched TRUSS, an enterprise digital asset platform that can be built directly on financial institutions’ internal networks. The on-premises solution integrates functions needed to start digital asset operations and keeps cryptographic keys, approval policies and transaction data inside the institution. It offers an integrated architecture, flexible key management and approvals, and a modular structure that can be expanded by licensing.

Australia’s transaction reporting and analysis centre AUSTRAC has tightened oversight of high-risk payment and cryptocurrency sectors, cancelling or suspending registrations or refusing renewals for 45 remittance firms and virtual asset service providers over the past year. It removed operators lacking capacity, inactive for long periods or insolvent, and took action over missing change notifications and registration gaps. AUSTRAC also suspended Cryptolink’s registration for three months covering 96 ATMs and opened a separate probe into Western Union.
